Abstract:

The essential oil from leaves of Virola surinamensis shows circadian variation in elemicin and in monoterpenes during the rainy season (February). The monoterpenes represents 50% of total volatile compounds during the dry season(June). Sesquiterpenes are predominant (50%) in the early rainy season (October). (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier B.V.
